How often can a family renovate? Wait, this... I open my eyes and i see crows cawing like death himself has appeared on earth. What are crows doing here? I look behind me and find a huge tombstone behind me. I stop the urge to scream cause, duh! dead people need peace too. I see that my humour is still intact, huh.  But how did i get into a cememtary?  A cold northerly wind blows, freezing me to the marrow. i look up and see the sky is dark, really dark. Not the starry night kind of dark, but the kind that you see in the movies when the spirit is going to fully takeover the girl's body. My wrist watch is broken and I have no means to know the time now.  I get this feeling in my gut that something is not right. I try to recall what happened in the past hours, but all I can come up with is me packing my things into the suitcase 5days back cause I just couldnt take it anymore, living with my mother who favoured my brother more than anyting, my stepfather who i dont speak a single word to and my brother who thinks he owns the world. My next thought is why cant I remember anything? What brought me to this cemetary? Where exactly am I? What happened in the past 5 days? "Ms Peters? Is that you?" I turn around and see a policeman with a gun pointed to my temple. Everything stops at that moment, my blood flow, my heart, my movements, everything. All i see is the gun, and all the gun sees is me. "STAY RIGHT THERE, FREEZE!! MS PETERS. You're under arrest." screams the guy.
